EIM Projects

Bex Reports in BOBJ:

• Our goal is to recreate in BOBJ each Bex Query that is currently being used.

• While we create them in BOBJ, we will look for efficiencies from a user perspective

• One Report with multiple tabs for various queries: • Statement of Changes in Fund Balance• Available Cash• Vendor Actual • RH039….

• Use of Projects Folders

BOBJ Projects Folders

Projects folders are used for testing and development of reports as they migrate to Enterprise

Update on RFCs and Reports

• KSB1/KOB1/CJI3: Group of Users met to discuss current uses of these ECC Reports. Cory met with FI Functional Team and is scheduling a meeting with the users and FI Team to discuss options

• Central Movements: Creation of Central Movement Action – This report is complete and was moved to production on 5/6/16

• Labor Distribution: This report is in BWQ and is currently being tested by both the BW team and the BOBJ team. There are a few issues at this point, but testing is going well.

• Time & Leave: Cory is going to put together the specs that he got from the users and find out when they have time to meet with us and go from there. Kelly and Cory will also go through some of the time reports that the users mentioned to help us better understand all the aspects of time and leave that we need capture. We are also trying to get information from Katie and Mallory on the HR team.


• CO data universe for BW Reporting – This report is on hold and is waiting on the CO initiative to begin in ECC.

• Add vendor info to Grant Report – As of 5/12/16, this is work in progress.

• Add fields to existing “Current Contracts” BW report – The BW has been working with the MM team and is waiting on decisions from them.

• Monitoring of Tasks Report – This report is complete and was moved to production on 5/6/16.


• Modify PO’s by Contract for Spend Analysis – Brandy has been working with the MM team and is waiting on decisions from them. Per Cory, he indicated he could test the existing queries in BOBJ against the universe that Jim has created. He needed to know the technical names of the query and which environment to test in.

• RFC-00336 – Per Cory this RFC is closed, but part of that project that was added later was the need for the field that determines whether or not a project is closed. Santosh has found the field, but he needs to know the list of possible values for that field. Cory will send an email to Shirley with a few questions about that field and get back to Santosh.

• RFC-00339 – Per Cory, he was going to get with the MM team to learn more about how GRs relate to the PO. He talked to Fred a little earlier and he showed Cory a couple of transactions, but said it’d be best to talk to John Rathinam (their consultant). Cory was going to email him and explain what we’re trying to do and see what he says. Cory was to report back what he found out. Fred did showed Cory the PO table and the GR table, but said John would have to help us relate one to the other.


• In addition to these RFC’s, Santosh is now reviewing BW cubes to see where some efficiencies can be gained. Many of the BW queries are written using Data Store Objects (DSO) as the data source rather than an info cube. In general, an info cube provides better reporting performance than a DSO. So, Santosh is researching where we can gain efficiencies by replacing DSO’s with info cubes. Not all DSO’s need to be replaced as some queries may require DSO’s because of the data requirements, but we may be able to replace some of them.
